In Genoa City, love isn’t innocent—it’s ammunition. So when Claire Newman chose to leave the powerful Newman empire to join Jabot—and to be with Kyle Abbott—it wasn’t just a romantic decision. It was a rebellion. A spark in an age-old feud between the Newmans and Abbotts. And when Victoria learned of Claire’s choice, she didn’t just cry—she shattered. Because to her, it wasn’t just Claire walking away. It was a daughter choosing love over legacy.

Victor Newman, the master tactician, took it as an act of war. Kyle, son of Jack Abbott—his lifelong rival—was now in Victor’s crosshairs once more. The same man he once toyed with at Glacade, only to discard like a broken chess piece. And now, Victor saw history repeating—this time with Claire at stake.
But Claire wasn’t naïve. She had survived the psychological horrors of Jordan’s manipulations, and she knew when control wore a familiar mask. So when she discovered Victor had embedded a spy at Jabot to sabotage her relationship and future, she was livid. The betrayal hit deep—not from an enemy, but from blood. Her voice shook with fury, not fear, as she demanded answers from the man who claimed to love her.
Victor, cold and composed, dismissed her feelings with chilling clarity: “This isn’t about love. It’s about being smart. And you’re not.”
But Claire had finally seen the truth: Victor’s version of protection was just control in disguise. And Kyle? He wasn’t a threat. He was her anchor in a storm of manipulation.
Now, the battlefield is set: Claire and Kyle on one side, Victor pulling strings on the other. And in Genoa City, love isn’t a sanctuary—it’s a battlefield.
